Transfer: Alisha Lehmann joins Juventus, Chelsea sign new forward

Juventus, on Saturday, announced the signing of winger Alisha Lehmann from Aston Villa’s Women side.

The Switzerland international signed a contract with the Bianconere that would see her remain at the Italian club until 30 June, 2027.

Lehmann fulfilled her “dream” of joining her partner, Douglas Luiz, at Juventus after completing a remarkable “couple” transfer from Aston Villa.

“For Douglas and me to be together in the same club is a dream,” Lehmann told Juventus’ website.

“I have spent my entire career in England and have learnt a lot over these years. I arrived there as a little girl, now I am more mature.”

Meanwhile, in another development, Chelsea confirmed that forward Sandy Baltimore has joined the club’s Women team from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).

In a statement on their website on Saturday, Chelsea said the 24-year-old signed a four-year contract with the club.

Speaking after joining Chelsea, Baltimore told the club’s website: “I’m very happy to join Chelsea. It feels incredible. I have always wanted to play for Chelsea and now look, it has happened!”
